Hi nest, congrats on two years sober!
I'm chiming in as a (sober) alkie, if that's ok, because I think your alcoholism is messing with you too honey.
There is no rule, anywhere, that says you have to be around drinkers to make friends. Is it a good idea to go back to your old haunts to be social? How about some new haunts, like the ice cream shop?
Good luck dear, looks like you are getting fantastic advice from folks here!
